When is the White House Presser on the American Worker Revolution in Madison?
Edited on Wed Feb-16-11 12:49 PM by polichick
Surely they're going to encourage the protesters, right?

(And make sure their efforts get plenty of press.)

1. It would be cool if the Secretary of Labor would make
some supportive comments.
Like "Collective bargaining has been one of the basis of democracy since the New Deal."

7. Obama is a supply-sider
He believes in tax breaks for the wealthy, lower business taxes and free trade. He thinks these policies will grow the economy.

Don't hold your breath waiting for Obama to encourage worker strikes.

9. Only he believes in exactly the opposite.
You aren't getting facts from your own polls are you?

12. His actions show that he's a supply-sider
Tax breaks for the wealthy
Deregulation
New free trade agreements

These are his policies. He owns them.

BTW, what polls are you talking about?

11. No clue. Maybe when we get that speech on guns?
I'm cynical enough to think there will be no encouragement coming.
